Senator King. Mainers expect you to be courageous and stand up to the Republicans in this dark hour. What would your hero Joshua Chamberlain do?

The problem wasn't that he was taking girls. The problem was that he was taking 𝘮𝘺 girls.
Trump: People were taken out of the spa, hired by Epstein… I told him we don’t want you taking our people, whether it’s spa or not spa. He did it again, I said out of here.

Reporter: Was one of the stolen people Virginia Giuffre?

Trump: I think so. He stole her.

The Supreme Court's disdain for Congress, the statutory design of agencies, and the public services they provide to millions truly astounds.

Destroying a 50-year-old Cabinet-level department may be the biggest violation of the Take Care Clause in U.S. history—and six justices simply ... don't care.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to move forward with the abolition of the Department of Education. It gives no explanation for its order. All three liberals dissent. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

We’ll never know what could have been, but we do know they chose to believe him and not her, and now they are making up excuses for their votes that put us all in harm’s way.

Don’t think this is a one-off.

Trump HUMILIATED:

When Trump started lying at a G7 press conference, Canadian PM Mark Carney cut him off.

When Trump tried to continue to LIE, Carney simply ENDED the press conference, and the press left.

THANK YOU for showing America how to handle a bully.

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee:

“Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

the thing is, people really do believe that trump can’t be corrupt because he’s rich, and it is hard to persuade people that trump has a different relationship to money than the rest of us (it is a literal fetish object for him)

This is one of the cowardly Brownshirt collaborators who let ICE run roughshod over Worcester. Name and shame him. Patrick Hanlon. #PatrickHanlon #NaziCollaborator

It is the duty of the police to protect their community, not to assist in a kidnapping.

You just watched the dumbest, self-inflicted “trade war” in history end with Trump begging China like a dog — all to receive nothing. He raised our prices for NOTHING. Other countries are laughing at our weak leadership and are taking us straight to the cleaners! Thanks, Donald!

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.
